Football Manager 2018: 20 Wonderkids You Will Need To Sign

20. Santiago Ascacibar

South America has been a happy hunting ground for low-priced Football Manager wonderkids for years, and the continent should be as well-represented as ever in FM18. Santiago Ascacibar currently stands as one of the area's most exciting young prospects, and after developing into a midfield powerhouse last year, he should be even better this time round.

Available for under £5 million, Ascacibar was characterised by his defensive solidity and outstanding physical stats in 17. He'll be 20 years old this time round, and is reportedly attracting interest from Serie A in real-life. A transfer will obviously make him unattainable at the start of the game, but he promises to be one of the games' most promising young midfield terriers.
